Answer:

<u>My family and I enjoy camping. </u>

Explanation:

A gerund is a verbal formed with the root of a verb + -ing (like “camping”) that does not act as a verb but as a noun in a sentence, thus, it can be a subject, an object of a preposition, a direct or indirect object or a complement.

The word “camping” acts as a gerund in the sentence “My family and I enjoy camping” because in here “camping” is not a verb, but a direct object, that is, the recipient of the verb “enjoy.”

In sentence 2, on the other hand, “camping” is an adjective that describes the noun “club” and in sentence 3, it is part of the verbal phrase which indicates the past continuous tense.

vazorg [7]

Answer:

This particular excerpt addresses the theme of honor. Brutus here implies that he will not go to Rome because of the awareness he himself holds within his 'great mind'. Within the play, Brutus's honor also becomes his weakness, due to his expectations of others to act similarly to himself.

What is the function of the relative pronoun in the adjective clause? The essay describes the mountain that I climbed.
Pachacha [2.7K]
Hi, the answer would be D - direct object. It cannot be the subject, because the subject of the sentence is "the essay". It isn't object of a preposition, as there is no preposition there. It is not a possessive, and given that this adjectival clause is a part of "the mountain", which is a direct object, it must be a direct object as well.
